Re: Round 6 Trades

He pulled up sore with a hip complaint. The fact that he was straight back in once fit is good enough to me to think he will play a few games and be given his chance. His second game he scored OK, Freo "playing the kids" and good junior pedigree also factor into it.

I'm happy to hold Hibbo for the M/B flex with Adams and I reckon Barrett isn't far off so Miles to Balic looks like the 2nd trade. Will then trade WHE to Macrae next week. Macrae projected to add $7,600 and with WHE's BE 69, the price movement should be pretty close the neutral.

EDIT - I should have asked @Hodges - what's your view on Miles' chances of getting back in the side any time soon?

Dont think its great TBH. Had a chance from the PS form but didnt make the most of it. Would imagine Clarko will be giving games to whoever is having good form in the 2s, considering the depth of similar talent players we have. Hasnt been named emergency from what ive seen, so cant imagine he comes back in the next few weeks at least.
